Features include:
- Shortcode-driven galleries.
- Columns and layout configuration.
- Ability to limit how many images/turtles to show.
- Option to hide the original creator’s username.
External Image Notice
This plugin loads images directly from Turtletoy’s external servers.

Insert the [turtletoy-list] shortcode wherever you want the gallery to appear.

[turtletoy-list query="turtle/browse/love/"]

[turtletoy-list query="user/USERNAME/love/"]<h3>Optional Attributes</h3>
